Linear

Linear integration

Linear keeps your engineering team's work organized, fast, and visible. But when a P0 issue lands on your board at 2 AM, visibility in a project tool does not guarantee a human response.

How ITOC360 connects to Linear

Notification via preferred channel

Critical Linear issues reach your on-call team via Voice Call, SMS, or Email instantly. No more P0 issues sitting unacknowledged at 3 AM.

Event-driven escalation

ITOC360 triggers on the exact Linear events you care about — new issue creation, priority changes, or specific label assignments.

Zero workflow changes

Keep your existing Linear teams, projects, and automation rules exactly as they are. ITOC360 is an additional webhook destination, not a replacement for any part of your Linear setup.

Bidirectional incident timeline

ITOC360 generates a complete response timeline: when the Linear event triggered, who was paged, when they acknowledged, and how the incident was resolved.

A critical issue assigned to an on-call engineer who is asleep will sit untouched until morning — the ticket is there, the urgency is invisible.

ITOC360 connects to Linear via its native webhook system. When a high-priority issue is created or a status transition matches your defined criteria, ITOC360 identifies the on-call engineer responsible for that team and reaches them via their preferred channel. If there is no acknowledgment, escalation begins automatically.

80% of service disruptions have a corresponding Linear issue. ITOC360 ensures the right engineer is awake and responding, not just aware there is a ticket.

Why Critical Linear Issues Need Active Escalation

Engineering teams rely on Linear because it keeps work moving fast and visible. But visibility in a project board is not the same as an immediate human response. A P0 issue assigned to an on-call engineer who is asleep will sit in their inbox until morning — the ticket is there, the context is there, the urgency is invisible.

ITOC360 turns Linear's event system into active incident escalation. When a critical issue hits your board — a production bug, a security flag, a customer-impacting outage — we immediately identify the right engineer from your live on-call schedule and reach them directly. No acknowledgment means automatic escalation, ensuring that your engineering operations respond with the same speed your team tracks work.

Engineering Issue Tracking Meeting Active Escalation

Linear captures the critical issue, but passive notification channels cannot guarantee a human response. ITOC360 bridges that gap, notifying the right expert via their preferred channel and escalating until someone responds.

Common questions

How does ITOC360 connect to Linear?

Through Linear's webhook system. You create a webhook in your Linear workspace settings pointing to your ITOC360 integration URL and select the event types you want to escalate, such as Issue Created or Issue Priority Updated.

Can I route different Linear teams to different on-call schedules?

Yes. Create separate ITOC360 services for each Linear team or project area and configure individual webhooks so the right engineers are paged for the right issues.

Can I filter by issue priority or label?

Yes. Use ITOC360's incoming webhook filtering to trigger escalation only when the issue payload matches specific criteria — such as priority: urgent or labels like incident or on-fire.

Does it work alongside Linear's existing Slack notifications?

Yes. ITOC360 runs as an additional webhook destination. Your existing Slack, email, or other Linear notification integrations continue working exactly as before.

Is postmortem reporting available?

Yes. ITOC360 provides a complete timeline: when the Linear event fired, when the first call went out, and who eventually acknowledged the escalation.
